CI Games today revealed that they are working on their upcoming tactical shooter, Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.

“The Sniper: Ghost Warrior franchise is one of the most popular in the CI Games portfolio with over 5.5 million copies sold, so we’re investing a significant amount of effort into the third installment, said Marek Tyminski, CEO, CI Games.

We’re fully committed to creating a AAA franchise that gamers can rely on for the ultimate first-person sniper experience.”

The game is “set in a modern day conflict based in Eastern Europe, players will be thrust into the role of a sniper caught between three warring factions, played out in a realistic and immersive environment.

Dig deep into the Ghost Warrior DNA as you choose between taking out your targets up close or from a distance, while at the same time focusing on your survival through evasion and stealth.

Non-linear, sandbox-style gameplay on large open-ended maps gives players the flexibility to play and replay the missions in a number of different ways.

The game is being “created from the ground up by an all-star development team that includes Steve Hart, former senior producer of Rebellion’s Sniper Elite V2, as well as combat veteran and former Marine Paul B. Robinson, who has an extensive resume of game development reaching back over 20 years.”

Sniper: Ghost Warrior 3 will release in the first half of 2016 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
